2 Samuel 22:1  David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul.

There is a song for every occasion. King David knew this. Whether he was sad or glad or mad, he wrote songs to express what was in his heart and on his mind. 

What’s on your playlist today?

It’s amazing how singing a song, or listening to one sung well, can shift our moods and redirect our thoughts. Where are your thoughts now? Where do they need to be? What songs will take you there?

There is one highway we drive frequently which requires a certain playlist. It is a playlist for recalling memories, for rethinking events long past. 

My bride has a curated collection of certain songs for when she is feeling blue. They remind her she is not alone in feelings like these. They refocus her on her sure hope. They help her sing her emotions until her emotions obey her command. Neil Diamond must have been right. 

Song sung blue
Everybody knows one
Song sung blue
Every garden grows one

Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when you take the blues and make a song
You sing them out again
Sing them out again

Song sung blue
Weeping like a willow
Song sung blue
Sleeping on my pillow

Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know, it get to feeling good
You simply got no choice

Songwriters: Neil Diamond

Now is a good time to sing a song. What song will you sing?

I will sing praise to the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Our Father, thank you for giving us songs to sing. You bless us with expression deeper, higher, and broader than words can contain. You put a song in our hearts. Teach us to sing. Amen.

Daily D – Psalm 139:17-18

Psalm 139:17, 18 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!

Daily D – 2 Corinthians 5:1-5

2 Corinthians 5:1-5 For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands. We grow weary in our present bodies, and we long to put on our heavenly bodies like new clothing. For we will put on heavenly bodies; we will not be spirits without bodies. While we live in these earthly bodies, we groan and sigh, but it’s not that we want to die and get rid of these bodies that clothe us. Rather, we want to put on our new bodies so that these dying bodies will be swallowed up by life. God himself has prepared us for this, and as a guarantee he has given us his Holy Spirit.

Daily D – 1 Corinthians 12:7

1 Corinthians 12:7 A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.

Daily D – 1 Corinthians 10:13

1 Corinthians 10:13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

Daily D – 1 Corinthians 4:4

1 Corinthians 4:4 “My conscience is clear, but that doesn’t prove I’m right. It is the Lord himself who will examine me and decide.”
